Bike:Vela
Distance: 81 miles

Well that didn’t go as planned. Set off on the Pimpino for an almighty day blast offroad. Was going to aim for 100 miles. Got …..oooh, 4 miles when the cranks started creaking really loudly. I tried tightening the drive side up but as I did I could hear loads of grit crunching so decided against it. Back home, check the handjob, flat tyre, it’s had a slow for ages and I just couldn’t be arsed so I got my Vela out (again).

Still, good long ride, 81 miles at 18mph average sounds just fine to me. Especially since the wind was in my face unless I was heading directly East.

A complete BELL END overtook me in Ince on the way home and then screeched left into a petrol station, I locked the back wheel braking and just missed his dog shit coloured Fiat, not that yet another dent would make much difference to it’s looks. I was going to follow him in but then I got a good look at him. Dangerous looking meathead with tattoos all over his neck, probably not worth it then. Fuckwit. He’ll live his life between a dead end job, the dole, sitting in the pub and watching overpaid morons running around a field and shouting at his chain smoking aggressive wife and spawn. I reckon that’s punishment enough.

Edit: Oh, and that’s 254 miles for the week, thoroughly impressive for me but clearly not for 360+ miles in one week Matt, offroad like a crazy fo!
